Today is Halloween, and once again neither of my daughters is going out in a superhero costume. It's probably just as well, since girls' costumes tend to have at least bare legs because of the possibly-quite-short skirt, and very likely a bare stomach as well if you're Supergirl, and there's a small chance of snow tonight.
Last year the then-thirteen-year-old thought about making a Deadpool costume, but it turned out to be well beyond either of our costuming capabilities so it was a no-go.
So the kids will be returning home with SUGAR!!! and then watching some Universal horror (I've had a request for Frankenstein from the nine-year-old, but I'm guessing she means Bride of Frankenstein). I get to wait at home until it's time to pick up the older one in town.
So I'm not going anywhere myself, and I don't have a costume.
But if I did need a costume, I know what I'd go as, and I know what I'd need for the incredibly cheap costume: green makeup and pointy years. I'd be...a Skrull version of me.
Awesome, right?
Too bad it won't work for next year.

I'm supposed to go to a Halloween party tonight, and I don't have a costume. The Skrull idea is great, but it would be totally lost on this crowd, sad to say.
